Quick review

Rating: 7/10 (30 July 2013)

Pacific Rim is a sci-fi, action packed summer blockbuster of 2013. The movies takes place when Earth is being invaded by gigantic aliens that none any already-existed weapons can sufficiently take down, the human creates the Jaegers which are gigantic piloted robots to counter and end the invasion. To me, this is what summer movies should be. The movie has stunning visual effects. The robots are beautifully crafted and rendered. Action scenes are breath-taking. If you want an all-out, ass-kicking, robot-smashing, explosive goodness, this is the movie. However, don't expect complex plots, well-developed characters WITH phenomenal action. Characters are predictable and simple. There are no sub-plots in the movie, just saving the Earth and kicking asses. In my opinion, this is a great movie to watch but it could be better developed, both the fighting and the human characters. Recommended.
